Section 3. FORMS AND REPORTS
2-304 AIR TRAFFIC ACTIVITY REPORTS
a. The Facility Operations Work Sheets (MCAS Form 3722/6 and ATAA printout) provide a statistical and
historical account of airfield operations. The traffic count shall be completed by the mid watch controller in each
branch of the facility. The traffic count will be submitted to the ATC Training office the following workday. See
Figure EXP-1. For Radar, totals shall be written in the bottom right corner of each block and circled.
b. In the event of an ATAA outage, the traffic count shall be maintained on a single clicker and the total
added to the facility log at the end of the day.

FAA JO 7210.3, Chapter 12, Sections 2-4
2-308 SUA ACTIVATION LOGS
a. The Neuse ATCAA Report (MCAS Form 3722/1) is used to account for the real time usage of Neuse A
and Neuse B ATCAA. This form is located at the supervisor’s desk and is completed daily by the FWO by
entering the activation data from the previous day’s supervisor log. See Figure EXP-2.
b. When Range Control (Big Rock) is closed, normally on weekends, the Radar Midwatch will ensure that
the SUA Activation log (MCAS Form 3722/13) is completed. Time entered SUA, time exited SUA and the
number in flight for the appropriate mission number will be transcribed from the flight progress strips to the
spreadsheet. Any approved mission number that is not on the schedule will be added to the bottom of the
spreadsheet. If no operations were completed, write “no operations”.
c. When complete, the training office will transmit the information to Range Control.

6-324 INFORMATION AND STATUS BOARDS
There are several Information and Status Boards located above various positions in the radar room.
a. The Information Boards contain pertinent information on local airports, frequencies, minimum vectoring
altitudes, etc.
b. The Status Boards contain real-time status of local airports, weather, runways, special use airspace, and
other information that affects the facility throughout each watch.
EXP-22
Expansion
ATCFacO P3722.1Q
c. Procedures
(1) Information Boards. FWOs shall ensure the accuracy of the information boards. Forward any
discrepancy to the Training Support Specialist.
(2) Status Boards. RD shall maintain the Status Boards for timeliness and accuracy. All information
shall indicate current status of the appropriate areas. Scheduled hours of activation for special use airspace are not
written on the status boards, the real-time activation shall be indicated by the affected altitudes. Unless otherwise
indicated, the altitudes begin at the base of the designated airspace (Figure EXP-14).
NOTE
The intent of these procedures is to give the controllers a visual cue for each of the status boards. Data written in a
particular area indicates to the controllers that there is pertinent real-time information. The lack of data in a particular area
indicates nothing pertinent to broadcast or that particular special use airspace is inactive.
Figure EXP-14
6-328 CONTROL SYMBOLOGY
Use authorized control and clearance symbols or abbreviations for recording clearances, reports, and instructions.
Control status of aircraft must always be current. You may use:
a. Plain language markings when it will aid in understanding information.
b. Locally approved identifiers. Use these only within your facility and not on FDIO or interphone circuits.
See Figures EXP-15 and EXP-16.
REFERENCE
ATCFM, Paragraph 2-603 and 2-604
